Local Mauritian “Tant” Bag

*Message me for more size and color options* Directly from the island of Mauritius comes this beautifully crafted tant, a woven basket perfect for the beach, the market, or a picnic. These types of bags are local to the island and can often be seen in little shops along the street or in the bazaars of larger towns. You’ll see locals sporting different sizes and bringing them everywhere, as they are the go-to bag. There are copious sizes, colors, and designs available in Mauritius. This bag features a vibrant woven pattern behind two sunflowers and the now extinct dodo, Mauritius’ national bird. The embroidered text says “Ile Maurice,” which is the French name for “Mauritius Island.” This would make a great gift for someone looking for a bag with a beach vibe or for someone that needs a bag to bring to the local farmers market, especially if they have a connection to Mauritius.
